Exactly right. If you look at other channels who aren't associated to colleges or college board they admit that people will try to cheat, but in all material made by people associated to colleges or college board they say that cheating will hurt you.
i took the ap human geo one 3 days ago and I will tell you cheating won't work because of plagiarism detection and your test will be sent to your ap teacher who will be able to tell if you wrote it because she's your teacher. And besides that there really isn't enough time to cheat, time passes by so fast you don't notice it and trying to google answers or find notes will only take that time away. People could always have someone else take the exams for them by paying them money but not everyone has that type of money and if those people do that then they're most likely the type of people that buy themselves into everything regardless whether it be college or sat exams.But honest advice, study and use the time you have left to review all the info you can so when the actual exam comes you can recall the info and apply it while utilizing your time to look for some notes that may help you. Notes will only help if you know the info and have reviewed. Anyways good luck lol
What if when College Board sends our responses to our teachers, the teachers say there are inconsistencies with past work but in reality we have just prepared well and put in the time and effort to master the content? I’ve been working really hard to prep and I feel like I’ve really improved but there is no way for my teachers to know that.
Will collegeboard release a practice round of questions so students know what to expect. Taking exams before there’s definitely questions that google can help you with, Atleast lead you in the right direction. What does a non google question even look like ?
So let’s say I want to open the exam on my computer instead of my phone because it is easier to see the questions on my computer than my phone. However, a lot of exams will also to show all work such as Calculus and Physics, how will I be able to take a picture of my work if I opened the exam on my computer?
PerkhsTC I’ve been taking pictures off my phone and uploading them to Google Photos, then downloading them to my computer and submitting on the practice frqs. You can also take photos and email them to yourself, though it is a bit time consuming. Should be able to do in five minutes but it’s definitely kind of annoying that we can’t open the test on multiple devices! I think you could also open it on your phone and maybe print it off your phone?
But how are they going to identify if a person has conferred with other people during the exam or not? They aren't watching the students during the exam.
I was thinking about it, what if I felt super confident on the topic I was given and really passionate that my essay on the AP exam was one of the best I have written, would that set off alarms? That's what I am worried about.
Rebecca Xu if you have MyAp Classroom for your AP exams, there is a new feature released three days ago somewhat that gives you practice FRQs in the format of these new exams
he answers that in this video around 3:55. Basically, the answer is that using online resources like Google is allowed, but he deems it to be of little help because of how the tests are designed this year. I'm not really sure what that entails, like what sort of material are we going to be tested on?
Steve Heimler did a video talking about everything you need to know about this year's exam, and there's a segment where he says that College board is putting out false information into the internet so that you will click on that, put it in your exam, and get caught for cheating. Then this guy says googling is allowed and I'm over here confused as hell.
They have said you can take a picture and upload it, presumably by emailing it to yourself. However, you have 5 minutes to upload, so keep that in mind.
I don't think so, but make sure you download AP World Languages Exam App before taking speaking test. Read the guideline here: apcentral.collegeboard.org/pdf/ap-student-exam-day-checklist.pdf
I wouldn't cheat, but based off of actual cases, the best way a person could possibly cheat is to not get caught, however the no limit to good scores are a great help to counter cheating.
Hot dog what a mess for people that actually didnt study and arent prepared for this stuff. Also what a mess for people who did in a sense that they may be flagged for cheating. Hot dog.
It shouldn't take that long to upload 1-3 pics, then upload them via a cloud service, then download them onto your computer, then reupload them. I could upload 4 separate math FRQ parts in 5 minutes
You commented on an older video but I really didn’t understand. So students in different continents will have different test but if you are in the same continent you will have the same test?
Abby G yes he said using google is like using your notes so it is allowed... he did also say that google may not help as much as you would think due to how the questions are designed
At a webinar for teachers, they said the scores might be delivered on time, but there could be a two-week delay. Understandable given everything that has happened. Where did they announce that it is definitely one week later than normal?
Ok, but I'm taking AP Spanish Language and AP Spanish Literature. Does that mean that we can copy and paste the text to put stuff into Google Translate? Not saying it would necessarily be helpful because the flow of Google Translate will never be the same as the flow of an educated speaker, but would it be allowed?
AP world language test will be in spoken format. Make sure you download an application on May 15. See AP checklist here: apcentral.collegeboard.org/pdf/ap-student-exam-day-checklist.pdf
1. If I wanted to take my exam in June, how would that work? 2. If I've been taking notes on OneNote online this school year, would I be able to access those notes during the test?
For the Ap exams in June will they be harder. It kind of frustrates me that people are just going to skip the ap exams in may by making up excuses to try to cheat and get a better grade. I feel like there should be a disadvantage for taking it in June
@@ThuyLe-jy2me Thank you the lessons are helpful, but I was also wondering about the practice problems in AP classroom which I'm pretty sure aren't on the live lessons
It does actually matter how many students get a 5. The college cut scores rely entirely performance. If 40% of students get 5’s on the AP Calculus BC exam historically speaking, then the top 40% of this years scores will be considered 5’s. Unless of course we are either advantaged or disadvantaged this year.
I have an amazon Alexa that I tend to ask for it to “google” me little information (years of events, synonyms of words, synopsis of people) or rather than waste my time typing it and finding it. Would that be allowed? I don’t want to be caught “ cheating” for conferring to and “Alexa” whose actually a robot.
Yes. They can't prohibit calculators with the online exams bc it would be easy to use them anyway. To be safe, I wouldn't use one that's smarter than the calculators normally allowed on the exam. Like wolfram alpha is good bc it's similar to the CAS on some calculators but the step by step solutions might be iffy.
I don't think it's fair to give a free clep exam to people who will be taking the exam early in the morning or late at night because they basically get a redo when the other kids dont get a redo option.
Are we allowed to use Princeton Review books during the test or if we use a statement from the book will that count as cheating? Since it’s not technically our own thoughts/words.
this year I took an ap class and I did not even choose it and I got put into the class a month and a half after the class started and I made some bad choices and I ended up failing the class and now since quarentine started ive been studying everything I missed ive took so many practice exams and I spend most of my free time reviewing vocabulary and watching videos and taking tons of notes now my question is if I do good on the exam and a copy of it gets sent to my teacher what's gonna prove that I haven't cheated?

Are u going to give AP this april and what grade are u in?
Yup! Check the Advanced Placement CZcams channel. There are live-streams for each class everyday. All next week will be practice exams
If you go to the college board website, you can see that they have released a demo test which will be the exact same thing as the actual ap test
The servers gonna be gone with all the logging in.

Lol big rip to the students that take the AP test legitimately but still get plagiarized because of their smartness.
What if we learn new ways to write and the college board counts that as cheating
Sofiane Villarreal yea they said it’s open note but they said if it’s similar then it’s cheating
But how are they going to identify if a person has conferred with other people during the exam or not? They aren't watching the students during the exam.
Arda Ünlü most likely going to do something cheeky. Obviously they won’t release this info until closer to the date
A L do you have any ideas?
I've heard maybe watching students through their webcams, but what about htose without them?
Maybe microphone
They probably have some sort of software that can show a log of your browser history during the exam.
What the hell is cheating if we can use notes or google?

I'm doing that by air dropping the images. Not sure how to do it without that though.
For world languages (im talking about Chinese specifically), we have speaking tests, and will the speaking parts also have plagarism detected?
I don't think so, but make sure you download AP World Languages Exam App before taking speaking test. Read the guideline here: apcentral.collegeboard.org/pdf/ap-student-exam-day-checklist.pdf

Is the open notes policy open to all AP exams?
Yes
